Learning and Teaching Strategy 2009-2013
Empower students through knowledge, qualities and skills
Our main objectives for this priority-area are to:
- Develop students' knowledge, understanding and skills that characterise
academic
excellence in their chosen discipline.
-
Enhance students' self-reliance and intellectual independence by developing powers of
critical analysis and evaluation.
-
Encourage students, through the process of Personal Development Planning, to integrate academic
learning with life and work experiences, enhancing their employability.
-
Develop students' abilities to plan and manage their careers and to articulate their strengths and
potential contributions to current and future employers.
-
Enable individual students to realise their academic potential through inclusive teaching and support
mechanisms.
-
Increase cultural and social awareness through engagement within the University and in local,
national and international contexts.
